Raw strings don’t treat the backslash as a special character at all. Every character you put into a raw string stays in the way you wrote it :
# !/usr/bin/python
print ‘C:\\nowhere’
When the above code is executed, it produces the following result :
C:\nowhere
Now let’s make use of raw string. We would put expression in r’expression’ as follows :
# !/usr/bin/python
print r’C:\\nowhere’
When the above code is executed, it produces the following result :
C:\\nowhere
